Wireless Carts

Schedule planned use (on the 'Schedule' clipboard on each cart!)
 

   Proper Use of Cart and Laptops:

  1. Plug in power cord (110 v).
  2. If the cart has a functional printer
    1. Connect ethernet cable to LAN (plug into the wall or a switch).
  3. To distribute the laptops, students should:
  • If possible, take the laptop previously assigned to them. OR
  • Sign log - check quantity & note any problems on clipboard (in door), OR
  • Students unplug laptops & check condition.
  • After use, return laptops to cart (students should close their documents and quit 'extra' applications ONLY (other than word processing and browser) - no need shutdown.
  • Stowage - slide laptops to back; carefully plug in power cords; lock doors (leave power side locked).
  • Transport - disconnect & coil cables.
  • Storage - Place cart in secure location; connect 110 v. power so the batteries will charge.
  •    Recommendations:

    • Do not shutdown the laptops except on weekends / vacations - or if they are behaving badly!
      Simply close & stow them - this will save time & prevent problems.
    • Do NOT disconnect the cart before stowing the laptops.
